WESTERN BULLDOGS veteran Scott West is struggling with a degenerative knee injury that will affect his decorated career.
The 33-year-old midfielder won't play against Fremantle at Subiaco Oval on Sunday as he rests what is described by the club as "bone stress".
He is no certainty to be back for the following round against North Melbourne.
West had minor surgery after pulling up sore against St Kilda in round three and missed the next two rounds.
He was a late withdrawal after flying to Sydney the weekend before the Hall of Fame break.
An MRI scan this week revealed the damage had worsened and the latest report from the Dogs ruled him out for up to two weeks.
